A total of £150 million will be paid to 50,000 people on Universal Credit as backpay from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
Two claimants who moved from other state benefits on to Universal Credit have won a legal challenge after their payments dropped, it has been announced.
The men, known as TP and AR, were each getting £180 extra a month in their old benefits before being switched to Universal Credit.
